Richard CUMMIN

Richard's Royal Irish Constabulary service record (#4223) show that he was appointed on 23 March 1840 at age 22, height 5' 9-1/2", Protestant, and a native of Co. Down - curiously his previous occupation is given as 'None'. He was immediately assigned to Westmeath, where he appears to have served with an unblemished record.1
